Organised crime. Although judging from the Rather Large HF on the back it may do country work.

Perth based but they do venture out when the bikies head out of town.

A lot of the cars come delivered with the HF gear in them as the OIC's just tell the purchasers that they "want a car the same as the last one" as a replacement hence it comes out all kitted up. Most of the guys on the frontline have no idea how to use the HF and much prefer the Sat Phone. Infact a visit to most Country stations would reveal the HF base set sitting on the bench switched off gathering dust.

VKI monitor HF at PAC and the Country stations are supposed too - again, as they have not been trained they remain turned off and unmonitored...

Unfortunately the Sat Phone is not the be all and end all of comms...
